She's spent years trying to be enough for his world. She never once questioned if he was enough for hers.
Carrie always knew marrying Thatcher Caldwell meant marrying into his world—old Atlanta money, impossible standards, and a family who made no secret of the fact that they had someone else in mind for him. She learned to hold her head up anyway. To smile through the dinners. To be exactly what was needed. And she told herself it was worth it, because Thatcher loved her. Then the late nights started. The unanswered texts. The distracted silences where her husband used to be. Carrie almost talked herself out of her suspicions—until a birthday party in Atlanta unravels everything at once. His family drops a name she's never heard. A woman from his past. An ex-fiancée he never mentioned, a broken engagement he never explained, and a marketing campaign that required him to spend a great deal of time with her. When Carrie goes to his office to demand the truth, she gets more than she bargained for. What she overhears breaks something in her she doesn't know how to fix. She's ready to leave. She has every reason to. And then two pink lines on a pregnancy test make the decision infinitely more complicated. Some betrayals you walk away from. Some you have to survive first. Tropes: marriage in crisis; gut-punch betrayal; plenty of groveling; infidelity/brief on-page cheating; other woman/man drama; high angst; surprise baby; steamy scenes; HEA. Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.
